"I love the smell of commerce in the morning..."


Well, I finally bit the bullet yesterday and stopped fantasizing about how to make a spot of extra folding and actually did it. I put my first ever kntting pattern for sale on ebay. Woohoo!

It's for a tortoise that I made the other night whilst in one of my obsessive-must get this finished cos it'll be brilliant- moments.

It is pretty brilliant.....I think.

Ai-ya!!!! It hurts

I am currently working on several top secret birthday projects. (Why are the majority of my friends born in March or April? This is no good to me because my birthday is at the start of May and I'm usually skint by then and it's bank holiday week. Boo). All gifts are wool related, all of them are awesome.
I wish I could spend my days at home knitting like a withered old crone with massive wrinkles in my forehead from squinting and concentrating too much. Actually.......I don't wish that at all. That is not a hot look......and i'm half way there already. What I mean to say is if I stay at my current place of work any longer I may implode. It's genuinely making me feel sick. Over the past week I've had terrible stomach pains when leaving work and I'm fairly convinced (because I'm a google doctor) that the stress of the past couple of weeks is causing me severe internal trouble. Sitting at home knitting secret pressies seems like a much better way to past the time.

As a small disclaimer: If you are one of the top secret present recipients I'm not tellig you what they are so don't guess....cos you'll guess right and i'll go in a mood.
